What you'll do

  • Design and build backend/fullstack features across Java 21, Spring/Spring boot, JPA/Hibernate, NodeJS, React/React Native
  • Instrument services with logging, metrics, and tracing as a standard part of development
  • Define and monitor SLIs/SLOs for the services you own
  • Use error budgets to guide prioritization between feature work and reliability work
  • Participate in an on-call rotation
  • Respond to and resolve production incidents affecting your services
  • Write and maintain postmortems/RCAs
  • Drive follow-up fixes to prevent recurrence
  • Contribute to infrastructure-as-code for the systems you build
  • Perform capacity planning and load testing for services ahead of scale events
  • Collaborate with platform/infra teams on shared tooling
  • Take primary ownership of your service's health
  • Participate in code reviews
  • Participate in architecture discussions
  • Mentor junior engineers

What they require

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in Java 21, Spring/Spring boot, JPA/Hibernate, NodeJS, React/React Native
  • Demonstrated experience owning services in production — not just writing code, but debugging, scaling, and maintaining it live
  • Comfort with observability tooling and reading dashboards/logs/traces to diagnose issues under pressure
  • Experience with incident response processes (on-call, paging, postmortems)
  • Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure with AWS and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) — enough to reason about deployment and scaling, even if you're not a dedicated platform engineer
  • Strong communication skills — you can explain a production issue to both engineers and stakeholders
  • This is not a dedicated SRE/DevOps/Platform Engineering role
  • You won't be building the observability platform itself or managing infrastructure for other teams
  • You'll be a strong practitioner of reliability engineering within your own feature work
